Consider the following distribution network. The first process, process A, Is unloading cargo from ships in California ports. Let us assume that this activity has a rate of 36,000 units per day. The next step in the process, Process B, is to load trailers for the shipment to the DC (distribution center) assuming a rate of 43,200 units per day. The goods are then processed at the DC, Process C, which involves sorting and packing at a rate of 38,400 units per day. Lastly, there is Process D, which involves shipping trailers of goods to customers at a rate of 28,800 units per day. Assume that the system is working 24 hours per day. Output Input Process A Process B Process Process D 38,400 28,800 43,200 Processing capacity 36,000 per 24 hours Based on the problem of SECTION 3, If Process B loses eight hours of its capacity per day, what is the impact on the output of the distribution network? The output of the network drops by 18,000 units The output of the network drops by 15,750 units The datput of the network drops by 13,500 units The output of the network drops by 11,250 units The output of the network does not change As part of restructuring the distribution network (presented in SECTION 3), a third- party logistics (3PL) company is hired to take the loaded trailers from Process B and deliver them directly to customers. Given that the maximum delivery capacity of this 3PL is 7,200 units per day, identify the bottlenecks and determine the total output of the new distribution system below. 7,200 3PL Output Process B Process C Process D Input Process A Processing capacity per 24 36,000 hours 43,200 38,400 28,800 The total output of the network is 43,200; The bottlenecks are Processes C and D The total output of the network is 38,400; The bottlenecks are Processes B and C The total output of the network is 36,000; The bottlenecks are Processes A, D, and 3PL The total output of the network is 43,200; The bottlenecks are Processes D and 3PL The total output of the network is 28,800; The bottlenecks are Process C and D
